This year’s English UK Annual Conference and AGM is being held on 12 and 13 May at the 5-star Le Méridien Piccadilly in central London.

Business English UK is a special interest group of English UK. It is formed by a group of leading language centres who are passionate about teaching English for business. Business English UK Open Days is aimed at offering opportunities for business English trainers outside the UK to visit Business English UK member schools and participate in the annual Business English Trainers’ Conference in London. A number of BEUK members around the UK will open their doors to welcome overseas trainers between 3 – 7 May 2010.

English Profile is a groundbreaking collaborative research project that is working to provide a detailed set of Reference Level Descriptions for English. Teachers and others involved in the teaching of high level learners are invited to provide feedback on draft "Can Do" statements for C level learners on the English Profile website - www.englishprofile.org.
